Chapter 383 Apology
The principal was also very fair: "Mrs. He, you have heard the whole story. It was your son who threw the book first.
As the saying goes, a book is worth ten thousand taels of gold. School is a place for reading. To students, how precious are books?
Our country is still in the development stage, and many people cannot afford to eat or go to school. Your son threw a book at another kid, and the kid got angry and beat your son. Although it is wrong to hit him, you can't blame the kid for your son being beaten, right?"
He Chunhua has always bullied the weak and feared the strong. She was especially afraid of educated people like the principal showing off their knowledge to her, which would make her, a rural girl who couldn't understand anything, look embarrassing.
Her tone was weak, but she was very stubborn: "So my son was beaten by that little bastard for nothing?"
Chen Tang rolled his eyes: "Your son bullied my son first. Does this situation count as bullying? I'm being merciful by not coming after you."
"Bullying is something that will happen again. Your child has a distorted outlook on life, behaves improperly, has no respect for knowledge, and is unfriendly to his classmates. My son should be a hero for standing up to your bully!"
"Who do you say is a bully!" He Chunhua's anger, which had just subsided, suddenly boiled over.
"I'm talking about your son!"
Chen Tang glared back unceremoniously.
The principal hurriedly tried to smooth things over: "Comrades, parents, please stop arguing!"
"Well, Lu Xiao apologizes to He Xiao. Although He Xiao beat someone up because he was resisting bullying, you should have told the teacher first when Lu Xiao threw your book instead of beating him up. You were also wrong in this matter. Since you just enrolled and don't understand the school rules, let's forget it this time.
Both children have injuries on their faces. I will pay for their medical expenses. We can make money by being harmonious. We will be classmates in the future, so please don’t fight again.”
He Chunhua was so angry that her nose was raised to the sky: "What do you mean her son beat people up because he resisted bullying? How could my son bully others? If he hadn't just entered the second grade, my son would not have noticed this little bastard at all."
Chen Tang slapped him with his backhand: "I have really tolerated you for a long time! What does my son's second grade have to do with you? Try to be so mean again!"
He Chunhua touched her slapped face, her eyes popping out in shock: "How dare you hit me?"
Chen Tang glanced at him coldly: "What if I hit you?"
He Chunhua screamed and tried to fight back immediately.
The principal's heart trembled, and he quickly pulled the man back: "Comrade Chunhua, Comrade Chunhua, you can't hit him!"
He Chunhua: "Let her go! How dare she hit me? I, He Chunhua, have never been beaten since I came to the military region. How dare she, a bitch, hit me? I'm so angry..."
Another "pop" sound echoed throughout the venue.
Chen Tang raised her red lips and blew on her palm: "Say one more word and I'll tear your mouth apart."
He Chunhua: "Ahhh, Chen Tang, I can't forgive you!"
The principal was also screaming in his heart, what kind of crappy class was he attending every day? Why did he have to come here in person to solve this problem? If he had known this would happen, he should have handed the matter over to the dean of studies!
Everyone held He Chunhua tightly, and Chen Tang's side was also quickly separated by the teacher.
Everyone was afraid that Chen Tang would slap her again. As the saying goes, three times of trouble never happens. If he slapped her again, He Chunhua would definitely not be able to control herself.
Of course, the situation is similar now.
"You all favor her, wuwu, you all favor her, I'm going to tell the leaders, you are bullying the rural people, wuwu..."
Seeing that everyone was trying to stop her, He Chunhua just used the same methods she used in the countryside. She immediately sat down on the ground, rolled around, and broke down in tears.
The principal looked embarrassed: "If you want to sue, go ahead, but Comrade Chunhua, in the final analysis, it was your son who bullied the other son first, and you were the one who scolded him first."
Besides, the commander of their military region is named Shen, and he is her biological father. If she reports it to him, he might say something about his own daughter for the sake of face, but in the end, won’t it be her and Commander Lu who are left with a bad impression?
He Chunhua cried even more miserably: "City people are bullying rural people, damn it, we are poor people for 18 generations!"
At this time, Commander Lu and He Xu, who had received the news, walked in.
When Commander Lu saw his wife throwing a tantrum again, he felt extremely embarrassed.
With a gloomy face, he walked forward and pulled the man up: "Enough, you keep making trouble every day and embarrass me!"
He Chunhua shook his hand off, crying and saying, "I got hit on the face, and you told me not to lose face! I'm your wife, and I got hit, how can you just let it go?"
Commander Lu looked at the two slap marks on her face and asked gloomily, "What's going on?"
On his way here he had heard two kids fighting.
What's so strange about children fighting?
Aren’t all children like this?
Only his wife protected that boy like a piece of cake. She would always see him bullying others. When others bullied him, his wife would be so angry that she would make a fuss.
He didn't bother to care about these things, since it wasn't his own children who were suffering.
But now his own child has suffered a loss at the hands of another child, and he cannot suppress the other party due to his status. There is no point in arguing anymore, so he naturally has to act as a peacemaker.
But this doesn't mean that he is willing to let his wife's face be trampled on by others.
The principal quickly said, "This is all a misunderstanding."
Chen Tang raised his eyebrows: “It’s not a misunderstanding, I slapped Sister He twice. The first slap was because she kept calling my son a little bastard and didn’t feel any apology for bullying my son. I gave her one slap, which was considered light!
The second slap was because she was foul-mouthed and insulted me. Was it okay for me to slap her too much? "
Commander Lu and He Chunhua have been married for so many years, so they should know what Chen Tang meant by dirty mouth.
He muttered quietly: "Then you can't hit people either?"
He Xu said: "Master Lu, this is not the first time your wife has caused trouble in the family compound. I didn't know why Sister He refused to change despite repeated admonitions, but now I understand that you are quite protective of your wife.
However, you can protect her, but don’t protect her indiscriminately. This is not protecting her, but harming her.”
Commander Lu showed a trace of embarrassment. Seeing He Chunhua still howling on the ground, he impatiently pulled her up and said, "Okay, stop crying. You are in the wrong in this matter. Go home and cook first."
He Chunhua was furious: "So she's just going to let it go, then?"
Commander Lu: "What else do you want?"
He Chunhua hesitated and couldn't explain it clearly.
But Chen Tang spoke before they could: "You can leave, but your child must apologize to my child!"
He Chunhua: "What? You still want my son to apologize? Your son beat my son like this, why should I ask my son to apologize?"
Chen Tang touched He Zhi's little head and said, "My son is also injured, but your son must accept the review and apologize for losing the book!"
"Principal, as you said, books are for people to learn from. Our country is in a period of development. From top to bottom, everyone should practice frugality. Books are so precious. This kid dared to throw away a new book that was just distributed. He has no respect for books that students should have. Shouldn't he apologize?"
The principal has lived a hard life and cherishes books more than people at that time.
After listening to Shen Tang's words and looking at the indifferent attitude of He Chunhua and her son, he felt like a stream of cold water was poured on his heart, and his whole temperament became indifferent.
"Master Lu, not everyone could afford to go to school back then. Now the national policy has been relaxed, allowing every household to afford to go to school and have food to eat. Don't forget your roots."
Teacher Lu's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly expressed his attitude: "Of course not, this kid dares to embarrass the book, I will definitely teach him a lesson when I go back."
The principal thought that he was giving them too much face.
It’s better to be a little cooler.
Look, he gave in all of a sudden.
"Then let your child apologize. He is six or seven years old and should know the severity of the situation. Next time he embarrasses others, just take your child back."
Teacher Lu didn't dare to let his son offend the principal, because people at that time were still quite respectful of teachers.
However, he was somewhat dissatisfied with the principal's open protection of He Xu's son.
Today was a huge loss of face. He suppressed his anger and pushed his son: "Apologize to He Zhi."
The little fat boy hated He Zhi, but because of his father's expression, he walked up to him hesitantly and said, "I'm sorry."
He Zhi snorted and turned his head away.
He doesn't want it!
